Echoes of the Trial.

Another disappointment in Sol. Clay
POOLS life.
AS no one was convicted, Forger Per-
kins may have to pay his $50 fine.
Stock in the Republican Committee OF
One Hundred has greatly deprecated.
Jurors Dinsmore, Stone aud Fulvider
returned to their homes last night.
Hon. G. F. McNutt, Frank Matter and
Hon. Cas- Byfield, OF defendants counsel,
were in the courtroom when the jury was
discharged.
Sim Gov had much more honorable
looking face than any ne that saw con-
nected with the pros scution," remarked
one OF the jurors.
1.-THE case bad not been begun an hour"
said juror, until understood the whole
thing. 1t looked like an organized attempt
to prosecute Democrats.
When Herman Everett, the attorney,
went into the Federal Court with his client,
VIM. Teele, the coupterfeiter, he ap.
preached Judge Woods and said: "Well,
Judge, read your speech this morning"
1t is said the Judges face colored up, and
that ne made no reply. Ever9tts client
promptly got five years.
"What effect did Judge Woods speech
have upon the jury" asked q reporter OF
one of the jurors.
$50 far as the Democrats were con-
cerned it had very poor effect. We all
could see at once how prejudiced he was
and it caused us to stand frmer than il
he had given rs q fair charge"
There was a spontaneous meeting Of De-
mocrats OF the Eighteenth Ward last night.
Sim Coy, who was at the Bates House was
telephoned for and when he entered the
door he was taken in the arms of admitting
friends, who carried him on the chairman
table from which he made rousing
speech.
One OF the most prominent Democrats In
the State said yesterday: "If l were on
my death-bed and had the word OF Coy
and Sullivan that my wife and children
should never suffer for the necessaries OF
life, would die believing that their future
comfort would be better cared for than II
/ had like promise from the whole OF the
Republican Committee OF One Hundred"
A good many people hereabout win agree
with this sentiment

a Song feo N the Sea eide.

The wild waves beat.upon the shore
And murmur low to me:
hear them. love, far up above
The roaring OF the sea.
And while they dash upon the beach,
So blithely and so free,
1 sit and dream-the wavelets seem
To murmur soft of thee.
They roll in on the pebbled sand,
Beneath the clouoless sky;
White shells they bridg, and ever tiny
dreamy lullaby.
And so, sweet ummet days, my love,
Beside the sounding sea,
sit and dream-the wavelets seem
To murmur soft of thee.
No sweeter music e'er was heard
Than that the wild waves sing;
None can proclaim a dearer name
Than that the wild waves bring.
For love, the name they bring is thines
And so beside the sea
lit and dream-the wavelets seem
To murmur soft of thee.

POETRY OF THE PERIOD.
Nancy.
Toronto Grin.

Toronto Grip.
Never painters fairest fancy
Can compare with my sweet Nancy,
For she is perfect picture
OF perfect w0manho0d:
Though she is not blessed with riches,
An0 must earn her bread by stitches,
She is better than her betters.
For her heart is pure and good.
When | sometimes watch her stitching,
Every stitch my heart bewitching,
exclaim in hasty language
At the sad mistakes in life;
But she laughs so quick and Jolly,
AS she puts to flight my folly
By asking If 1 wish 70 have
A Duchess for wife.
Then / gay with love that fingers
Near the stitches by her fingers
That If I had Aladdin'slamp
a Duchess she should be.
And she answers, archly smiling,
In q manner most beguiling,
That If she were Duchess
p She would never marry me.
So, perhaps, 1t may be better
After all to wear the fetter
OF poverty that's honest
Than titled, proud and rich;
For before the moon is changing,
Bya mutual arranging,
King Cupid viii our threads of life
Unite in one strong stitch.

NEW COUNTIES.

On Thursday last Governor Martin is
sued proclamation organizing the
County of Gray This makes nineteen
new counties organized during the past
two years and half The area embraced
in these counties aggregates 1888 square
miles-very nearly twice the area of the
State of Massachusetts, more than twice
the area of the State of New Jersey, and
more than three times the area of Con
necticut. Census takers have been app
Ointed for four other counties, Grant,
Kearney, Logan and Greeley, whose ag
gregate area is 3,240 square miles When
these counties are organized-as they
probably will be within few month
the counties organized since the first day
of January, 1885, will included an area
of Is, 633 square miles-a larger territory
than is included within the borders of the
two States of Massachusetts and Mary
land or the two States of Vermont and

KANSAS CROPS.

Topeka, Kas., July 27.-Judge James
Humphrey has just returned from trip
over Kansas on an inspection tour as a
member of railroad commissioners. In
speaking of the trip he said that, not
withstanding the the dry weather. Kan
sas would have an abundant corn crop.
While expectations of a month ago will
not be reached, there will be millions of
bushels to spare in the state. The COM
missioners within the past week have
been over the greater portion of Western
Kansas, and report dry weather as pre-
vailing only in spots.
Sumner county and strip of country
extending northwest Of Hodgeman is
quite dry and corn will be scarce. Saline
and Ottawa counties are also suffering
somewhat and Lyon and Usage and por
tons of Shawnee counties are needing
rain badly. Judge Humphrey says that
the dry weather will not effect the pros
perity of the state, and that the boom of
the Kansas towns will still be heard
abroad.

CONSTRUCTION FORCES OF
THE SANTA FEE CALLED
IN FROM THE
FIELD.

The following is telegram from To-
peka to the st. Louis Globe Democrat,
July 9th. We print it for what it is
worth:
Quite a sensation has been created in
railroad circles by a recent move of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe in calling
IN large number of its engineers and
laying off many gangs of men it the
field.
Investigation reveals the fact that fully
one third of the surveying force in the
field has been called in, some eighteen
corps, containing eighty-seven men,
while $50 track layers have been laid off
and reduction made in the construction
forces at various points, especially in
Kansas, Texas and the Indian Territory
Assistant Engineer Kingman, when in
tervlewed as to the meaning of this sud-
den and sweeping retrenchment, stated
that it was due to lack of material, he
presumed. When pressed upon the point
that surveying parties need no material,
he said it was orders from headquarters
in the East, and that further than that
he had no knowledge He said that the
lines from Augusta to Mulvane, from
Toronto to Madison, and from Holyrood
to Burden, on the Little River extension,
would be completed by August IA, and
that from Burdette to Jetmore and the
east line of Clark county on the Mulvane
extension would be completed by Sep
TENDER 1, when more men would likely
be retired.
A force of 200 now finishing up the
KiOwa extension will reach Canadian
City, on the south bank of the Canadian
river, August Is, and will then be laid
off. The only new. work to offset this
retrenchment is the resumption of track
laying between Abilene and Manchester,
Kas
Coupled with the recent sweeping re-
duction il the Atchison shop, this move
ment is regarded as a certain indication
of the intention of that company to mar
row the circle of it's cOnquests largely
until the present threatening aspect of
the money market and crop prospects
shall improve.
There has been a strong effort to keep
the matter quiet, but it has finally
leaked out somewhere, and is acknowl-
edged to be fact at the general offices.

boat was in some manner upset. Other
members of the party were safely res

There is movement now being
worked up that if done will be one of
incalculable advantage to this locality
the water works and irrigating project.
Chief Engineer c. \. Beadle, of the A.
X. & c., believes the idea good one to
lay a pipe along his road from Dodge
City to the end of the road. With a
pipe of sixteen inches with the great
fall. it will be seen that an immense
quantity of water could be carried to the
uplands and towns and result in a more
substantial benefit than a railroad. By
running it to its full capacity with reser-
voirs along the line we believe it would
supply sufficient water to irrigate vast
area of land. If it was not needed for
this purpose it could be made to pay a
small dividend by furnishing water to the
towns 1t has been demonstrated beyond
doubt that the ditch system of irriga
ton is a failure when necessary to run
any great distance. and the new way
would cost but little, if any, more at
first and the Keeping in repair much less.
At all events let ms investigate the mat

CHEAP FUEL.

c. E. Maine, of Missouri. is in the CITY
to-day exhibiting to the people a fuel
which he claims can be manufactured at
the small cost of 80 cents per ton. 1t is
composed of dust, coal slack and chem
ical known only to himself The sub
stance is in the shape of common
brick, and he claims that one of these
will cook a good meal at the small cost
of One-siXteenth of cent. If this be
true it certainly marks one of the great
est eras ever known in the fuel line 1t
will save for the west one of her great
est expenditures. viz: for the purchase
of coal. 1t is to be hoped that the in
vention is as good as it is claimed to be.

THEY CAN STRIKE 1T.

While eminent men of the state and
nation are continually saying compli-
mentsry things of Kansas, now and then
Kansas editor tries his hand at it, and
to use a homely phrase, frequently
knocks center. The following from the
Clay Center Dispatch is case in point:
Why should not the people of Kansas
he happy? Where is there state or a
section where are combined all the ele
mcnts of prosperity, health, morality
and perpetual advancement? Where is
there a section in which the people are so
united in good will, in generous emula-
ton of everything which tends to make a
state great and people happy Kansas
has been made by the people who are
now living in her borders. Her prosper
ity is their glory, her teeming cities, her
productive farms. her thriving schools,
her blooming and bearing orchards, her
beautiful groves, her happy homes. her
droves of sleek fat cattle, her store
houses. factories and newspapers, her
railroads crossing nearly every township.
All are the products of the energy and
the enterprise of her citizens now living
and glorying i'm the products of their own
labOrs.
This prosperity is not the heritage of
their fathers but is the heritage they pro-
pose to leave their sons. 1t is heritage
of glory and permanent prosperity which
is increasing every year SO rapidly and in
such magnificent proportions that even
those who enjoy it can hardly realize it,
1t is a heritage SO great, SO free, SO won
derful. that all the world acknowledges
it, and is sending its representatives by
the thousands every month to enjoy and
participate in it. Kansas is land of
plenty, the epitome of all modern enter
prize, intelligence and fruition.

BOOM IN FARM LANDS.

1t has been shown recently in these
columns that the rapid increase in pop
ulation will, at no very distant day, prob
ably, give this portion of Kansas about
| fifteen times it's present numbers, making
great cities of many small towns and
greater ones in those of which wise man
agement, pluck and energy prevail. The
effect of this increase on farm lands will
be to improve their cultivation, thereby
increasing their productiveness, and on
this account, as well as for the greater
competition for opportunities to cultivate
the soil and the better prices for prod
ucts realized on account of better home
markets, the value of the land will be in
creased. Town properties in many towns
have had their boom this season. AS
long. .as they were going up everybody
wanted to buy, and cared not how much
he paid, SO there was a prospect of sell
ling at a higher price. To all such booms
there comes reaction, because the spec
ulative figures to which prices are forced
are fully equal to the real value of the
properties after considerable more devel-
Opment has been made in the country.
In towns which have not experienced
this advance in prices during the spring
months, and in which full share of the
advantages are to be realized from de-
velopment the chances for speculation
are still open, and are likely to be i'm
proved on short notice by parties who
see the situation as it is.
So in farm lands. The ground swell
has scarcely effected them. Yet it was
certain that good farm lands, we'll loca-
ted, in Kansas, are ultimately to be val
ued at several times the present prices.
Just when this boom will strike no one
can tell. Town properties are considered,
by spectators, more desirable while on
the advance than farms, for the reason
that their advance is greater and more
rapid; therefore eligible town properties
are likely to be doomed for all there is in
them before great attention is given to
farm speculations. The time set by some
knowing ones for the farm boom to COM
mence is about next spring Be this as
it may, it is pretty certain that good
farming land in Kansas will never be
cheaper than to-day, and that their ulti-
mate prices will be equal to or above
those of the best lands in the older states

ABOUT BOOMS.

The boom is Kansas plant. 1t is not
the wild harem scarem thing it is pic.
tured to be. Some people imagine it to
be holy terror, and to leave in its wake
destruction as bad as holocaust. In Kan
sas the boom is indigenous to the soil, the
atmosphere and to the energy OF the peo-
pie. 1t is true these people come from
the slow Flooding east; but when once
imbued with Kansas vim, vitriol and en-
terprise, they display those characters
ties with the same degree of CELEBRITY as
the old timer.
Here is Dodge City with all of the airs
of the metropolitan. Appearances here
1t first sight astonish the finely bred
fastener. who no doubt revels in luxury
in the domestic sphere in which he was
born. At Dodge City he finds palatial
brick blocks and residences. water works,
electric lights; street cars in embroyo, and
al other things not possessed by towns
OF more pretentions in the East
Now is it the air that conduces to the
growth of these enterprises. We believe
the climate of Kansas promotes industry
and thrift. And the conclusion forces
itself upon our mind that wind-Kansas
winds the genuine lubricator in the
boom cycle.
Nothing stagnates Kansas boom. 1t
takes time to get good ready. The old
magnificent boomers in the eastern part
of the state are furnishing the war paint,
and soon the dusky denizen will be max
ing the Arkansas ualley hilarious and glo-
rious with his boomlet-to let to all the
towns that will take it in.
There is music in the air. You can't
stop the boom whoop of the Wichitas and
the Hutchinsons The boys have been
loading up all summer, and soon will
make the Arkansas valley howl loud and
long with the notes of the boom.
Wichita has been building buildings
largely.
Hutchinson has been building build
ings largely.
Many other towns have increased in
population, and haye been building
buildings largely.
Dodge City has been increasing in pop
ulation and building buildings largely.
After building comes the real estate
bOOm 1t rides on after these and after
the summers heat has waited its enerva-
ting influences to other climes, the real
estate mOnger gets up a whOOp la.
